The mere presence of the Griffin instilled fear in everyone, causing tremors of apprehension to ripple through the group. As it unleashed a deafening roar, momentarily paralyzing them with shock, Ethan, the group leader, was stunned to realize that the creature before them was indeed a real Griffin.
"Wah...what..?"
"Why...such a thing...?"
"What do we do?"
Panic spread among the group members, their voices trembling with uncertainty.
""E-everyone! Do not fear," Ethan quickly adjusted to the role of leader, his voice steady despite the rising panic. "The academy wouldn't let such a creature roam around. This must be a test. We should not fight it. We need to escape."
His words brought a sense of clarity to the group, dispelling some of the fear that gripped them.
"Combat team, try to hold off its attacks, grab its attention. Support team, prepare to escape. We will head into the forest. With the trees to cover us, it will have a harder time catching us."
